Chapter 15: The Giant's Branch
Click......
In the beginning, the ascension of the macchinaa was a slow process.
However, when Mackina completely enters the state of "spaceship mode", its built-in faster-than-light flight system is really activated.
Sue!
In just the blink of an eye, Macchina's vision disappeared from Lu Xuan and Da Gu's vision.
In Tomoko's observation perspective, Macchina's acceleration directly broke through the speed of light, and in a very short period of time, it rushed out of the range of the Earth-Moon system.
This is the true ability of a biological civilization capable of navigating the universe.
Jumping out of the conventional means of human cognition, it breaks through the iron rule of the speed of light in the universe in another way, and realizes the possibility of shuttling between the stars at will.
ββ¦β¦β
Seeing the direction in which Mackina disappeared, Lu Xuan and Da Gu both did not speak for a long time.
On the one hand, of course, it was because of Shaji's departure, but on the other hand, it was also because neither of them knew what to say.
After a long silence, Da Gu, who was full of doubts, finally took the lead in speaking.
"Why are you in such a hurry to get her away?"
It's different from Shaji, who was carried away by joy and didn't realize the seriousness of the problem until the end.
After noticing Kirino Mufu's strange words and performance, Dagu had already realized that Lu Xuan would choose to send Sha Ji away at this time, it must not be some accidental coincidence.
"Kirino Mufu told you."
It was obviously a questioning sentence, but Lu Xuan's tone was very firm when he said this.
"No, he didn't say anything to me......"
"But his strange behavior, I realized something."
It wasn't until standing side by side with Lu Xuan that Da Gu Fang suddenly realized that he didn't know when he had caught up with the pace of this "leader".
Now I am no longer the ignorant teenager I was a few years ago.
"Is there a new crisis brewing on Earth?"
"What kind of crisis can make you so uneasy?"
Lu Xuan has always been conceited, and being able to make him coax Sha Ji to leave Earth at all costs can only show that the crisis that is brewing this time has exceeded his expectations.
At the very least, Lu Xuan felt that it would be life-threatening for Sha Ji to continue to stay on Earth.
"Something to do with that monster in outer space?"
"Or the black giant who can kill that monster with one punch?"
Due to the gap behind the intelligence, Dagu did not know about the existence of the Ultra-Ancient Returnee, and he only speculated based on what he knew.
"It's pretty quick to know."
Glancing at Da Gu with a contemplative look on his face, Lu Xuan didn't hide anything as always.
"Thirty million years ago, the ultra-ancient civilization, they were not completely extinct."
"On the eve of darkness, some members of the ultra-ancient civilization chose to leave the earth and go to the vast universe to find their new home."
"But they didn't give up on the planet."
"I don't know for what reason, that group of survivors of an ultra-ancient civilization has returned to Earth."
"The steel monster that TPC observed is the 'biological form' that one of the ultra-ancient returnees has evolved from seizing my armed fortress."
After a slight pause in his tone, Lu Xuan looked at Da Gu who was still thinking and added.
"I call that thing 'Sfia Synthum', and it's barely a fork of the 'Giant of Light'!"
As soon as these words came out, Da Gu suddenly looked up in amazement.
"That thing...... Is it also a 'Giant of Light'? β
Raising his eyebrows slightly, Lu Xuan asked rhetorically in a calm tone.
"Why not?"
"Does the 'Giant of Light' have to be a giant?"
"That's a super ancient civilization that has mastered the technology to create a 'Giant of Light'."
"Who knows how far they've developed this technology in these 30 million years?"
"I'm just making a bold guess based on the data I've observed."
Da Gu, whose brows were tightly locked, was still a little incredulous, or he asked with some unwillingness in his heart.
"Do you have any proof?"
As a human body of Tiga, the "Giant of Light" has an inexplicable sense of sacredness in Dagu's heart.
So he couldn't accept that such an ugly monster that was hostile to humans could be a branch of the "Giant of Light".
"I remember telling you before, right?"
"It takes three steps to turn humans into giants."
"The first is to have the genetics of the 'Giant of Light', which is known as the ultra-ancient genes known to TPC."
"The second step is to transform humans with ultra-ancient genes into 'light' instruments, which are usually called 'transformation devices'."
"And this third step is to inject the light of the human will into the body of the giant stone statue and revive it."
When he heard this, Da Gu nodded in understanding.
Lu Xuan has never concealed Da Gu in this regard, and even took him to various universities to take classes, just to let him have a sufficient understanding of the most cutting-edge technology and technology.
"Then the question arises, what if the ultra-ancient humans only performed the first two steps?"
"What kind of existence will they become if they transform themselves into 'light' with will, but without a suitable stone statue of the Giant for them to use?"
As soon as these words came out, Dagu immediately understood and quickly made associations.
"Uncle Asuka and Jeepta III ......"
"Is it because of those ultra-ancient returnees that they will become like that?"
Nodding his head to affirm Da Gu's speculation, Lu Xuan just wanted to open his mouth to continue explaining, when he heard the other party ask again.
"Then why don't they continue to make giant stone statues?"
"Since they were able to make giant stone statues in batches, it shouldn't be a problem to make some more giant stone statues, right?"
This is the biggest confusion in Da Gu's heart right now.
Why did the ultra-ancient humans only perform the first two steps, but did not create a stone statue of a giant suitable for their own use?
"So, you're naΓ―ve."
Shaking his head slightly, Lu Xuan found that he really couldn't expect a guy like Da Gu who liked to use his fists to solve problems to seriously think about the details.
"What do you think the Golem is?"
"The stone statue is only the appearance, the giant is the essence."
"The stone statue of a giant is the body of a giant, and it is the embodiment of the concept of 'light'......"
"Even if it's a super ancient civilization, it's not something that can be made if you want to."
"Besides, have you ever thought about the question, how many of the ultra-ancient humans who would choose to flee from the earth can be recognized by the giant stone statue?"
"Or do you think 'Tiga' is just a simple tool?"
